Might've accidentally dun goofed my database

[rapid gorge]

Hi all,

Did a clean pull w/ new dockercompose.yml, after that I had to make a new admin account. I had some error while updating first, so I changed the docker-compose.yml by hand. That means I now have my postgres in a local folder, as is said in the 1.102 change logs: "We have been thinking about mounting the Postgres data to a local folder for a while but always hesitated, as this would break existing instances due to people not reading the change logs carefully.".

So I am one of the persons that did not read carefully. Have I lost the database?

If you have a backup, restore it.
But if not, as long as you did not delete the existing docker volume, you should be able to revert the changes to the compose file and immich should be able access the database from the docker volume.
